What, no reference to MW2 yet, but they've added a quest with a name like this?

Hmph.

Comment by SenthaiOverlord

Most likely a reference to the game "Red Dead Redemption".

Comment by divanova

Noone posts anything useful >: O not even a screenshot. I cannot find this guy at all. Is he inside the place our outside?.

Comment by haggers

so instead of just saying the game's name, care to elaborate for those of us who have not played it and still would like to understand the reference?

Comment by karijne

If Hellscream is so mad at this orc using demon magic to save a Horde outpost, imagine how he'll react when he realises that orcs use are using it every day to kill boars in Durotar.

You know, I have an idea for a quest chain.

They could always let us clean Garrosh' mouth so he won't utter any more M rating words against psychotic dead elves. To clean him out, we need to get some soap, right? But - to get this soap, you have to go through a goblin shepherd who just happens to have the last soap on Azeroth. And goblins don't work for free, it comes at a price. You have to sweep his house from roaches, and then you get the stuff you need.

Finally when you clean him, Garrosh' potty language turns into an evil ghost. Then you kill it by aiming a rocket launcher, missing him, and hitting the wall 30 yards away.

Whaddayathink?

So anyway, Splintertree Mine is right behind Splintertree Post.

Also, Durak is the guy you get half the quests in Draaka's chain from.

Bow of ire, so all this time the protoss have been giving their life for a bow

Comment by Ibitis

I think you're all concentrating on the wrong part of the quest here... Garrosh had a BOUNTY ON YOUR HEAD.

Now, I know what you're thinking: "holy crap, he was going to have me killed!" That is true, but the important part is this... what was the quest reward? Was it a blue or a crappy green? Was it a group quest? Tell me Garrosh, how many people did you have to contract?

Comment by GameGod652

This quest kind of startled me. It's not every day that you see an orc suddenly turn into a huge demon.

Comment by jl45

Nice one Sherlock, you work that out all by yourself?

Comment by LordAnthrax74

I dislike this quest. Garrosh is a brutish thug with all the subtlety of a berzerk rhinoceros and racist ego of a whole Klan meeting. He shouldn't be right about anything.

Comment by Boxtears

When you confront Durak, the dialogue you have is "This is terrible, Durak! Hellscream is conviced there's a demon behind our work here. What can we do?"

Conviced?

Blizzard, get a spell-checker already.

Comment by Strudels

So...

Just sayin', really awkward doing this quest chain as a Warlock.

"The demons want nothing more than for us to become reliant on their foul magics." -- Well, crap.

"And I smell its taint on you as well, <class>...." -- Well, there's one right next to me.

"Listen... Before you say anything, I KNOW we're not to meddle with demonic energies...." -- Oops.

"There is strong prejudice against the use of demonic magics. Unjustified, but real nonetheless. For this reason, I will transform you into an imp for the duration of the mission to prevent you from being identified." -- Hey! I can be the same as my pet now!

"Did you feel it, <name>!

The raw fel power seething through your being?" -- Well, I figure, since I cast that kind of thing all the time...

Just try not to chuckle when you're doing this chain on a lock.

Comment by LilGazzi

Why is this downrated? Perfectly logical for one, and two, how do I thumbs up stuff that's been purged?

Comment by MadFerret

Garrosh puts a bounty on your head....Garrosh is about to throw you off a cliff as well in Stonetalon...

...ya know...People complain about Varian...

...But at least he is not actively trying to kill you...

Comment by Demoas

I can't do this quest ...:(( because when I come to the place where Durak and kill him, so it not fall off his head ... Please help

Comment by Darneas

I decided to summon my succubus to be a funny and the succubus said "Ew, you're in trouble now!"

Comment by Nomiconn

Did this quest today on my 85 Mage, and i don't think you can complete it after you've "fought" him. I killed him easy, i'm not sure if there is some sort of event that I missed or what, but I can't turn in the quest to him now.

Edited to add: Dropping the quest, did not permit me to reaquire it either. :(

Comment by Laef

I used to hate Garrosh, but sending me to pwn a lock is pretty sweet. Ah, the days when I ran a guild that refused locks entry. Bwahaha!

On topic, I replaced my level 19 heirloom gun with the following outcome:

*If you're doing this chain for twink gear, then make sure to pick up Diabolical Plans, which drops from the mobs in the same area as the felfire. The next quest in that chain, Never Again!, rewards BiS rings for most classes @19/20. The best time to do that quest is just after you've picked up All Apologies (so you can hearthstone to Orgrimmar once you've got the 2 weapons, talk to Hellscream, then fly back to get Durak's head).

Comment by XJones

So was Durak an Orc channeling demonic powers (Like a Warlock) as he did with you? Or was he a demon taking the guise of a Orc Warlock?

Comment by svbmergo

atm...4.3 the bow you get from this quest - is best in slot for lvl19 hunter twinks...The major gain is in the 3stam and 1point increase in max damage, with twink gear hits will be large enough to ignore the 1point min. damage and the 0.2dps loss is made up for by the +1 max damage too.Here's a comparison:http://www.wowhead.com/compare?items=56708;42946&l=19

Comment by chrth

I'm thinking that when your toon kills Garrosh in the Siege of Orgrimmar, he'll wish he ended you here when he had the chance.

Comment by Vigg

Seemingly this quest has changed a bit with 6.0.2 - no more Garrosh angry at you, more just Vol'jin disappointed in you.

Also, it doesn't give any indication where it should be turned in now, either in the quest log or in the map, as there's no quest marker at the Orgrimmar throne room anymore, strangely.

Comment by EvilKender

As of patch 6.0.2 it looks like the tracking on this quest has a minor bug. The standard map pins to show both the location of Durak to "persuade" him and the turn-in do not show up on the map or mini-map. Showing Durak's location (in the mine, if you need the reminder) isn't a big deal, but the quest text doesn't specify to return to Vol'jin for turn-in. Since there's no stated destination, and no map pin for where to turn in the quest, it could get a bit confusing for newer folks.

So, moral of the story:

Vol'jin (Org) --> Durak (Splintertree) --> Vol'jin --> Profit.

Edit: Sorry, looks like Vigg already posted a note on this.

Comment by Ithuraen

Be sure to chop off the right head. Thrall's son, also named Durak, is in southern Durotar. While entirely possible that Thrall's toddler is secretly a demon, best kill the right Durak first, and wait for Fell Duraky Jr. to appear as a raid boss later.

Comment by Whoooooooovian

As of Feb 19 2016 the quest doesn't show where to turn in. For those of you who don't know where you turn the quest back in, its Vol'jin since they haven't fixed it from when Garrosh was replaced by him.

Comment by Krixooks

I suppose they had to change the warchief to make this quest correct, but it gives an important insight into Garrosh's character.

Got Wood?Goto talk to him so you can ride Brutusk, as of today you can be mounted or transformed to mount Brutusk no glitch on this quest, after talking to Kadrak goto Brutusk click on him, he takes you and drops you off at Gorka sitting across the bonfire from you

Crisis at SplintertreeWARNING! must be dismounted and in true form don't be transformed you will not mount and the quest won't complete you must ride with Gorka to the ramparts, she keels over and dies. turn in quest at Kadrak

To the Rescue!automatically dismounts you and puts you on Brutusk, Gorka jumps on the wrains and drives you in. run into splintertree post to where Gorka is standing.

Blood of the WeakMines in the rear of splintertree post, go in all the way to rear stay left at T. Durak stands under a make shift tent. Pierce Their Heart! is not part of the progression and doesn't have to be done to get Ring of Pardons, abandon it or don't pick it up unless you want the silver and xp from completing it. Go out to Splintertree Demolisher to get the next quest for the chain.

Dread Head RedemptionFly back out to Splintertree post, go into the mines and talk with Durak, after confronting him follow him to the rear of the mine, he will change into a demon and attack you, fight and kill him. due to the massive changes to the warchief position your map won't show where to turn it in. the quest ? will be there when you get back to Org and into the throne room.

Comment by Tatiana

Very interesting point - completing this quest as a mage, I was not given a choice of rewards, the only thing offered and given to me was the intellect ring. However, I did also get a notification that the appearance for the cloak (Durak's Downfall) was added to my appearance collection.

When did this become a thing? Very cool though, unlocking access to all the reward appearances even if you don't get all the rewards.

Dread Head Redemption

Description

I sense that Durak is more than he seems. Demonic power is dangerous and it is easy to fall to its corruption - even for a trained warlock.
I do not trust him, <name>.
Find this Durak and tell him that the Horde will have nothing to do with him.
